Final Thoughts 2008

[skinsfan1987]

i think the skins should really go after matt hasslelback during the off season, and hopefully, have a QB competition with campbell in training camp. i just don't think that campbell is the real deal. He didn't read defense very well during the last 8 weeks, and at the same time, he has regressed. I know its the west cost offense and it takes two to three years to develop, but jim zorn and possibly Vinny cerrato job is on the line next year, and signing hassellback could be the most important off season addition for this team. He knows the system, and he's lead the seahawks to the super bowl in 2005. For all the talk about fixing the defensive and offensive lines, the skins should build those through the draft and in free agency, and to be honest, campbell is a average or below average quarterback in this league. This team needs a QB that can throw the ball down the field, and the ability to make quick and accuarte decisions in the pocket, and campbell hasn't done that since week 2. Hassleback the ability to do this under jim zorn offense. The bottom line is that if campbell does not play well in the preseason and training camp, then hassellback should be starting QB in 2009, and campbell could be release before week 1.

Our best player was murdered last year and we still had a very respectable season with a brand spanking new head coach.

We were a combined 3-0 against the two teams in the NFC championship game.

Our rookie class was all over the place(mostly very uninspiring save Horton and Brennan).

The offensive line was completely incapable of peforming up to it's pay grade in this new WCO.

Jason Campbell was up and down and seeing as how the QB is so important in pro football I wish we had a better idea if the guy is going to be a top flight QB. I really have no idea.

The special teams had a big time regression.

The defense was mostly very good to great except in the fourth quarter where they were just average at best or even mediocre.

Good points and I agree whole heartedly. I think we got overly excited over our fast and successful start. We were bound to hit some growing pains and we did.
We have got to shore up our Offensive line or otherwise we are going nowhere.

Yes 53, but the fat lady doesn't sing until dirtbag comes around. We need all our brothers on board. After that Eagles loss last night, I know he's somewhere smiling
